On some planets these birds are of great service since they possess a high order of intelligence, often being able to speak many words of the languages of the realm.

"In the picture, he departs from this earth like an arrow. Although he has not chosen his fate, he appears to have, in his last instants of life, embraced it. If he were not falling, he might very well be flying. He appears relaxed, hurtling through the air. He appears comfortable in the grip of unimaginable motion. He does not appear intimidated by gravity's divine suction or by what awaits him. His arms are by his side, only slightly outriggered. His left leg is bent at the knee, almost casually. His white shirt, or jacket, or frock, is billowing free of his black pants. His black high-tops are still on his feet. In all the other pictures, the people who did what he did--who jumped--appear to be struggling against horrific discrepancies of scale. They are made puny by the backdrop of the towers, which loom like colossi, and then by the event itself. Some of them are shirtless; their shoes fly off as they flail and fall; they look confused, as though trying to swim down the side of a mountain. The man in the picture, by contrast, is perfectly vertical"

Sex and Politics
Washington Post Opinion | President Trump says he supports LGBTQ Americans. His record says otherwise. Jun 4, 2019.
When accepting the Republican nomination for president, Donald Trump promised to be an ally of LGBTQ Americans.” Now that he's in the White House, Post producer Kate Woodsome notes, Trump's policies have contradicted that promise. Several Trump administration regulations, executive orders and personnel appointments are reversing Obama-era civil rights protections for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer people.
Execrable propaganda from an Anti-Trump rag. They cite as negatives Trump's order on dysmophics in the military and protection of separate sex sports, which is entirely sensible (see my comment on the TIME article blogged earlier). Trump addressed "gay rights" versus religious rights and came down in favor of faith. All this and more slanted and unspecific crap.

Although the video shows overwhelmingly Trump's support of the rights of homosexuals, TIME's focus is, of course, on his one order disallowing transgenders in the military. "See? See? Trump hates queers!" propaganda, of course. It's no flip-flop. Many, especially on the "left," will insist on enabling them, but people with real dysmorphic disorder represent an entirely different matter than homosexuals, and the military is no place for them.

Trump admits his divorces were his own fault. He says he 'believes' in traditional marriage, and cites his and Meliana's. He does not put down "gay marriage." I also believe in one man, one woman, kids as the best marriage for all concerned and for society, when it works — which, alas, is not often enough. Acknowledging what is optimal is not to say that one size fits all. ☭NN wants you to believe Trump is anti-gay, or something. If I may be allowed my own editorial opinion: Screw ☭NN.

…Upon becoming Chancellor of Germany, Adolf Hitler had appointed Göring as Minister of the Interior for the State of Prussia, Germany's biggest and most important state, which controlled two thirds of the country, including the capital, Berlin, and the big industrial centers. As Minister of the Interior, Göring thereby had control of the police.
The first thing he did was to prohibit regular uniformed police from interfering with Nazi Brownshirts out in the streets. This meant that innocent German citizens had no one to turn to as they were being beaten up by rowdy young storm troopers drunk with their newfound power and quite often drunk on beer. These young Nazi toughs took full advantage of police leniency to loot shops at will and terrorize Jews or anyone else unfortunate enough to be caught in the wrong place at the wrong time.…

A top Democratic operative says voter fraud, especially with mail-in ballots, is no myth.
